Distribution of single-use straws, utensils, stir sticks and condiment packages would be by-request only, and restaurants would have to provide reusable products for food consumed on the premises.
The City of Victoria is drafting a new bylaw designed to reduce the number of disposable cups and food containers that fill the city’s garbage cans.
He suggested fees closer to $1 per cup or container would likely have more effect, but said he is loath to download more cost on consumers as food costs rise, and instead suggested city staff explore other options. The most common item in the public garbage is the disposable cup, which is tossed away at a rate of 13,000 a day, while an estimated 6,300 food containers end up in garbage pails daily, along with 5,800 straws.
